wow i finally got this video out! it’s been in the making since like what? march? although I couldn’t fully create my vision due to PC limitations, i’m still proud of myself for seeing it through, especially something that i deemed more difficult and out of my comfort zone. i appreciate the patience on this one. also, i still got plenty i want to discuss when it comes to sora and riku, and kh in general, so stay tuned for more discussions! take care, fen~ .・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.
